About me


Hello, I am an experienced psychotherapist who is also a Systemic Practitioner, which means that, along with being interested in your thoughts, feelings and emotions, beliefs and assumptions, I pay attention to relationships, family, social environment and the wider systems around us that may influence your experiences. 

Instead of seeing difficulties as existing solely within the individual, I consider the relationships and systems around you. Alongside this: Communication, Family relationships and patterns, Power and boundaries, Attachment, culture and social context, life events, and power and boundaries. 

Relationship issues? Let’s look at your primary relationships, and how they have shaped the relationship you have with ‘yourself ’, and how, from now on, this could change. Once we begin to change the relationship with ‘self’ and begin to acknowledge and accept the past, one’s life view upon everything and everyone around will start to change also.

I  offer sessions for adults, young people, and couples/family members. For every one of my clients, I create a bespoke therapeutic client-led experience to meet their particular needs.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Accredited register membership
